API reference (first pass)

This is a map of the Mission Control HTTP API surface. It’s intentionally light-weight for the first pass.

Base

• Backend service: backend/app/main.py
• API prefix: /api/v1

Auth

User/browser auth (Clerk)

• Used for the human UI.
• Frontend enables Clerk when NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY is set.
• Backend verifies JWTs when CLERK_JWKS_URL is configured.

Agent auth (X-Agent-Token)

• Used by automation/agents.
• Header: X-Agent-Token: <token>
• Agent endpoints live under /api/v1/agent/*.

Endpoint groups (routers)

Routers are registered in backend/app/main.py:

• auth_router
• agent_router (agent surface)
• agents_router
• activity_router
• gateway_router, gateways_router
• metrics_router
• organizations_router
• souls_directory_router
• board_groups_router, board_group_memory_router
• boards_router, board_memory_router, board_onboarding_router
• approvals_router
• tasks_router
• users_router

Examples

Health

curl -s http://localhost:8000/healthz

Agent call (example)

curl -s http://localhost:8000/api/v1/agent/boards \
  -H "X-Agent-Token: $AGENT_TOKEN"

Next

• Add a per-router table of key paths once we standardize which endpoints are “public” vs “internal”.
• If an OpenAPI schema exists/gets added, link it here.
